oh ya... i missed out Mercury8400. he can call WP holder rubbish...
so he must be holding a P1 pass in SG.

Techincally i don't work "in" SG. I'm only in SG 3-5 months in a year, after that i will work someplace else. So whatever passes don't make a difference for me anyway(cept for the 3-5 mths)...and what is the difference between P1 or P2? Better hospitality?

better u apply as main applicant or apply individually.
only apply PR as skilled worker scheme then only NS requirement will be waived.

?? first generation PR dont need to serve NS but their kids as second generation PR have to serve NS.

Spouse PR should be consider same generation.

Your link shows : "Male children who are granted PR status under their parents' sponsorship are liable for NS under the Enlistment Act." Thats second generation PR.

Not accurate. It actually be all PR must serve NS, unless you are exempted.

QUOTE
Under the Enlistment Act, all male Singapore Citizens and Permanent Residents, unless exempted, are liable to register for National Service (NS)

Main applicants who are granted PR status under the Professionals/Technical Personnel and Skilled Workers (PTS) Scheme or the Investor Scheme are exempted from NS.

Spouse of an applicant would seem not to have this exemption.

Ok. Thanks, will read more on it.
Just read from a Pinoy forum (I have no idea what some of them are saying, I only focused on english which i can understand laugh.gif laugh.gif), apparently, I am LIABLE for NS.
Just most of the cases, the husbands are exempted.

Apparently, spouse is considered as 2nd generation from the Pinoy forum.

Yes, if they are under 40 and they obtain their PR via spousal relationship, they are required to do national service by law. However, in actual practice, most (if not all - no anecdotal evidence) are, in practice, given waivers (but they must still register with the Central Manpower Base in order to get the waiver).

Seems like by law you need to do NS, but you can apply for a waiver which will likely be granted.
